Full Description

The Reality Labs Custom Silicon Program Management team at Meta is pioneering breakthrough work in AI, computer vision, machine learning, mixed reality, graphics, displays, sensors, and innovative human interface technologies. Our chips will power wearables and AR devices that seamlessly blend the real and virtual worlds. To achieve these ambitious goals, we focus on the entire technology stack—from transistor-level design, through architecture, firmware, and algorithms. We are seeking an experienced Silicon Validation Technical Program Manager (TPM) to drive execution of post-silicon validation for Meta’s next-generation custom silicon programs powering AR/VR devices, and next-gen consumer products. You will lead XFN execution across silicon architecture, design, firmware, software, system integration teams. Your primary responsibility is to ensure that Meta’s custom silicon delivers the required performance, power, reliability, and functional correctness through rigorous post-silicon validation. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams and experience the full vertical integration of next-generation products. This position leverages your technical expertise and program management skills in a multi-functional leadership role, offering exposure to cutting-edge technologies from concept to mass production.

Responsibilities

Drive end-to-end planning and execution of post-silicon validation across Meta’s custom SoCs, accelerators, and AMS chips Develop and maintain integrated schedules spanning silicon bring-up, validation coverage, firmware enablement, driver readiness, tooling, and system-level test execution Lead cross-functional (XFN) communication, ensuring alignment across architecture, silicon design, validation, firmware, software, platform teams, product, and operations Understand Meta’s custom silicon architecture, IP interactions, and platform requirements sufficiently to identify validation gaps, dependencies, and risk areas Partner with validation teams to define test plans, KPIs, pass criteria, and coverage goals for functional, performance, system, power, thermal, and reliability testing Ensure bring-up activities—including boot, power sequencing, security provisioning, interface enablement, and performance characterization—are tracked and unblocked Run weekly XFN execution forums, issue triage sessions, and exec-level status reviews Drive debug coordination across silicon, firmware, and software teams ensure issues are owned, root-caused, and driven to closure Ensure availability of engineering samples, validation boards, fixtures, firmware drops, and debug tools to support execution Oversee execution readiness for key validation milestones such as bring-up readiness, stability checkpoints, system integration readiness and production qualification Manage risks proactively, drive mitigation strategies, and provide decision-makers with clear options backed by data Partner with lab operations, automation, and tooling teams to ensure Meta’s test infrastructure (automation pipelines, dashboards, data systems) scales with program needs Develop dashboards and reporting mechanisms that provide visibility into validation progress, coverage, blockers, and bug trends
